Thanks Harry, Richard, Angelo, Jim, photony texas, Luigi and kutitta for including my pictures here.
Three from Luigi this week:
The Little Town Where Time Stood Still_07 by luiman. I liked how the jigsaw pattern of shadow and light shapes can be viewed as a 2 dimensional pattern yet also invites us to move into the picture to explore the alley's nooks, crannies, shapes and textures. The dog anchors everything at the intersection of possible paths. I'd love to see this as a print.
In the street_10 by luiman. I really liked this street photo. Almost claustrophobic. Interesting characters. Their expressions and body language seem to indicate they have time on their hands and nothing to look forward to.
Fragmenta_01 by luiman. Wonderful abstract arrangement of shapes that plays with perceptions of depth in the picture plane.
* by Semrich. Speed. Night. The glint of chrome. Film Noir.
Roman Arch. Castello. by Xavi. Soft light, historic ruins in soft focus, beautiful evening tones.. and the cat strides out of the foreground, totally owning the scene, and giving a 3-dimensional pop to the image.
Kalina by taskoni. The strong psychological component of this portrait grabbed me.
Four Days in November by raphaelaaron. Another powerful portrait.
Power! by Malvin. I liked the subject isolation, and use of longer focal length to emphasise relationship of people and falls
Two from Rob:
Heirloom Seeds by robklurfield. Dramatic composition in light and shade with rich tones, using Agfa Copex Rapid.
Passing Trains That Have No Names by robklurfield. I liked the darkness, mystery, and the rush of the train into the tunnel. If it wasn't NJ I'd be looking around for the Famous Five. Excellent capture.
